DNC choses Milwaukee over Miami and Houston as site of 2020 convention

[bripat9643]

You're such a pathetic moron. Still harping on a post from 5 years ago. Meanwhile, you embarrass yourself in this forum every day

It's not "5 years" Fingerboy. You only "newly discovered" it in 2017 --- math much?

Know why that thing follows you like a puppy?

Because you can't man up to admit you got played, that's why.

And by the way that original fake-story? Check it out, it's disappeared completely. At least SOMEBODY figured out they fucked up in their partisan-hack blindness.

I'm not counting the days that have passed since your one day of glory.

It was long before the last election, and it was while I still lived in Jacksonville, which makes it at least 4 years ago.

I wouldn't know or care where you live but the OP of a fake story that two different posters put up --- you being the second --- is the summer of 2017, which won't be "at least 4 years" until more than two years from now.

Doesn't matter anyway, it would have been a bogus story 4 years ago or 40 years ago. And you ran with it without bothering to vet what was obviously fake, because you're a hack.

Prove it was in 2017.

It's right there in the OP of the thread --- "July 31 2017". And then you posted the same fake story after that one was already up, and it got merged.

Holy jumpin'

Cult of Ignorance -- at least they're persistent.

And again it doesn't matter if it was 2017 or 1953 or 1928. It would have been a fake story any time after 1924..

Post a link to the thread, dumbass. I don't have it.

"Republicans have a lot to say about Milwaukee being chosen to host the Democratic convention in 2020. Their convention choice, Charlotte, abuts a House district they tried to steal in 2018."

Yep. I posted about that upthread. That district still doesn't have a Rep, we have to set up a whole new election.

WRONG! I explained what my state was going through and he, as usual, attacked the progressives. It had nothing to do with being a progressive.

He talks his hate and you talk yours, “rednecks”, “tramp supporters”, and then the only “friends” you have...call it what you want but your hate and intolerance is pretty obvious.

What would you call someone who has a huge pickup with an American flag mounted on one side of the bed and a Confederate flag mounted on the outer side? And who also has a jaw full of chaw tobacco spitting out the window? A Rhodes Scholar?

An improvement... The bar is fucking low. Lol

you should know about a low bar as you're dragging bottom.

You can’t get any lower than a Rhodes scholar... Slick Willy And Rachel mad cow… Now that’s fucking funny

Yeah, I know how you hate brilliant educated people.

That's back in post 51. You know, 51 posts ago.

I see what you're going to do, keep demanding a link that's already there, just like you kept claiming in the thread that you had acknowledged your fuckup (you didn't ---- I checked).

College Degrees never impressed me after I got out of college, it just meant someone drank for four years solid.

Maybe you drank for four years but I did not, and neither did any of my friends.

 

[toomuchtime_]

You can dance and you can spin but you can't hide from the fact that the DNC has chosen Milwaukee to try to apologize for Hillary's dismissal of Wi voters as deplorables.

Actually what I can do, and what I already did do, is demand your source for this bogus quote. The one I already know you don't have.

You're the one dancing here, Fred Astaire, not me.

I have already explained where my reasoning comes from. You continue to play these little gotcha games instead of discussing the issue because you know I'm right.

The DNC needs Michigan and Wisconsin or they may not get to the WH in 2020, so this is a good strategy for them. Impressed they are being this smart.

Do you think their support of anti semitism will help them in these states?

Michigan perhaps, I’m not real sure why, but they have a heavy Muslim presence. Wisconsin, they may, I think that is why they are wanting Omar to pipe down, she could alienate many Jewish voters and others that support Israel. She can do some damage if not reined in by the establishment Democrats.

But she seems to have the full support of the Congressional Black Caucus, so I'm not sure they can quiet her down. From accounts I read, Pelosi was prepared to censure her strongly, but the Black Caucus opposed it so strongly, she had to back down.

I never partied, I only went to college to get my degree and left, never like the college atmosphere. I liked the real world better wher I could gather my real skills.

It does kind of explain his incoherent posting though.

They can boo Israel, G-d and chant "Death to America!" wherever they want

They need to get her figured out, her and Cortez could scare away independents. They are way too radical and if voters believe this is where the Democratic Party is headed, they will vote Republican.

Milwaukee would be a bad choice.

Why? You don't have to drink the footwash they call "beer".

Beats Houston or Miami in the summer, for sure.

Setting up the stealing of hundreds of thousands of more votes for the commies.

Sorry, don't see how a convention "steals votes". Matter of fact the only vote-stealing I'm aware of took place here in NC.
Here, read all about it.

I do not believe you. My views were cemented decades ago in the blue city I lived in with a Repub candidate running for mayor leading by about 10 thousand votes or more and nothing but Dem mayors for forty years or so losing when a massive vote for Dems came in from a poverty area at the last moment. That is when I totally lost belief in local government. I knew no one would question it as they would be accused of hate and racism.

What does your personal butthurt story have to do with the fact that a political convention can't "steal votes"? Nobody votes at a political convention except INSIDE it.

One wag here thinks conventions are held after the election, on wet trolley tracks. But that's another story.

As far as votes coming in late from impoverished areas, maybe this is your first rodeo but that's ALWAYS the case. Those are the area with the most beat-up resources. Duh?

Wasd in Milwaukee in the eartly 70's. The adultscwere still riding the loop on Friday nights & hand=ging out in pick up bars. Red neck city.

But the real reason is a story I had just read by an NBA player who stated Milwaukee was the most segregated place he had ever lived.

Don't think I've ever been to Milwaukee. Wisconsin several times but not Milwaukee. So you're saying the best thing about Milwaukee is it's not far from Chicago?

None of that enters into holding a political convention anyway. It's just a space they rent. The local service economy gets a boost. That's about it.

I want a partied, I only went to college to get my degree and left, never like the college atmosphere. I liked the real world better wher I could gather my real skills.

I went to Northern Va. Community College when I was living in DC and working for Blue Cross/ Blue Shield and got my Associates degree. Then when I got hired by the airlines and was transferred down here in NC, they set up a program with High Point College (now university) where we could attend there and they would reimburse us a certain percent when we got a certain grade. I got almost all of my money back since I graduated Magna Cum Laude. I did this the entire time I was working full time for the airlines.
Sadly though, my degree in Behavioral Science would have paid me the money I was making working for the airline. and I was in the International Rate Dept. and had to know almost more than some of the top exes did about how we treated out international passengers. I had to know all about baggage, currency conversion, customs and immigration, and help the ticket counters when a person came up and wanted to change their ticket. When that happened, we had to have the ticket itinerary read to us from the beginning and then what they wanted to change it to. We then had to recalculate it in the currency it was written in and converted the difference into USD. All international tickets then were also based on mileage and we also had to calculate that too. I was a lead in that department and was all by myself opening the department on 9/11. One of the other leads called in when the first plane hit and we thought it was an accident. Then when the second plane hit and another hit the Pentagon, we knew what was happening. anyhow, many of the upper management came in to help those in reservations who were talking to the passengers, but no one came down to rates. I was stuck trying to help the numerous ticket counters who were panicking all on my own. Thankfully, my supervisor finally came in and got someone from upper management to come down and help out. My shift that day was supposed to be from 5AM to 1:30 PM, but I didn't get home until after 7 PM.
But, I loved that job and only got y degree to say I had one. I still dream about working rates even after being retired. I dreamed about it every singe night for the first year after I retired. I could still calculate an around the world fare from scratch because it's burned into my mind.

Never used my degree either, I work in transportation, love marketing and as long as I love doing what I do, I’ll never retire. In fact I have looked into consulting for small businesses to help them grow.

Milwaukee, excellent. It's not Madison but at least Geaux4it and bripat9643 can now lay claim to a Democratic convention that actually *IS* in Wisconsin. Even if they don't get the trolley tracks. Or the date in December.

It's not in your district, so why the fuck are you yapping about it?

Because I know how you salivate when you see trolley tracks in Wisconsin and think it's a political convention.

Whelp --- you just got one step closer. Now if you can just get the convention moved to AFTER the election is over, you'll almost have a justification for this CLASSIC wackadoodle thread.

It seems like it was ages ago. Maybe that's just an indication of how boring you are.

I wonder how many graduates never end up using their degrees. Probably more than we know.
My guy has a degree in electrical engineering and has only used it a few times. But he's about as handy with just about anything you can imagine and fixes everything around here from our cars to our roof to our wiring to our plumbing and more. He's a Gulf War Veteran too and is on VA disability for Gulf War Syndrome. His ship was docked off Saudi Arabia when we released canisters of Sarin gas over the ocean and it drifted down to his ship 300 miles away and coated it, got into the air supply, the water supply, and the food supply. It was very diluted by then, but it still did damage and that's how the diagnosis of Gulf War Syndrome came about because almost all of the military then was exposed to chemical warfare. It's what they call as presumptive. War is hell and I only wish we get out of the ones we're still in and not ever get into another one.

Milwaukee is about 90 miles from Madison. Since I live is Wisconsin bi visit both cities alot as both have a ton to offer...Milwaukee could use the economic boost. The beloved foxconn deal is in jeopardy and many experts are doubting it will happen now. This would be a big loss. Crooked company I guess.
